6/10 Good

A continental breakfast was included in our booking and this was a reason for selecting to stay here, however on the morning there was no one around to assist us and no breakfast available. We eventually saw a cleaner who advised they do not serve any breakfast and therefore we had to find somewhere on our way home.

Lovely and quiet. Highly recommend!

2/10 Poor

No kitchen was open. No beer in the bar - only lager. Very few spirits on sale. No ice. And there was a band playing until very late. We had the option to listen to them - but there were no seats. No loo roll in the room. Obviously a place looking to close down.

Wonderful stay

The whole stay from checkin to breakfast was wonderful. We had an evening meal in the bar, the food was amazing and the service was great. We had a very comfortable nights sleep and then arose to an amazing breakfast. We will definitely be returning.

2/10 Poor

dining facilities were closed at all times, Breakfast was self service with no cooked food and no tea or coffee available and no staff available to assist. Definitely the worst hotel I've ever stayed at.

Friendly staff but needs to have a nicer approach at check in not ask you to pay as soon as you arrive through the door
Kathleen, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible check in. Waited for ages as only one girl working in the pub and doing everything. Had to wait in a busy bar with a load of drunks. Absolutely awful. The drunks took priority over us checking in. Wrong room given to us so we changed. Food stopped at 8p.m. Had to go out for food. Came back to freezing cold room and had to go down to bar to ask them to put heating on. Had to fight my way through all the drunks again to ask. No teaspoons for a coffee in the morning in the room and we had a really start. Dirty shower. Pub lights right outside the room. Absolutely awful stay.

Disappointed

Stayed last year and enjoyed it so much we decided to come again this year. Very disappointed! We arrived and were shown to our room by a very polite young barmaid. Once in the room I had to go down to the bar to ask for towels and to report a broken toilet seat. We were told there was no food available on Mondays so had to go elsewhere to eat, came back to find the place shuts at 9pm. Went back to our room and realised we had run out of toilet paper (half a roll for 2 night stay). I went downstairs to find the place was locked up and nobody was about. Luckily I found the cleaners cupboard was unlocked so I helped myself to toilet roll. Next morning we went down for breakfast at 08.30 to find out that only serials and hot drinks were available but not until 09.00 so went without. After a day out we returned and asked for a menu for dinner. We were given a menu but after the young lady explained what wasn’t available we had a choice of pie, curry or beetroot wellington. Over all the stay was bad. The room was generally dirty with bits of window hanging off. If there was a fire we would have been in trouble as the fire doors were wedged open.

Nice little pub

Lovely friendly stafe and room was well presented, the bathroom had multiple maintenance issues. But because of the short stay i didnt mention it to the staff and didn't see any one on checking out. Would stay agen

Good for a night

Decent hotel, comfy bed, room a bit small, but only for 1 night. No water in room, also one of the packets of biscuits had been opened and 1 taken, so possibly not checked as thoroughly as could have been. Bar and restaurant part not busy so decided to eat elsewhere. Overall a good stay

Great for parkrun tourists

We stayed the night. Nice clean and comfortable room. The food served in the pub was excellent and great value. Staff were super helpful. Perfectly situated for visiting wakehurst place - especially if you’re a park runner. They very kindly provided a later breakfast, which was delicious.

Great stay in even in a storm

We had a wonderful stay, the beds were super comfy and we did not want to leave it! We went in a bad storm so we did have to deal with some power cuts and we didn't get to have our full English. But the chef was wonderful and tried her best to get us some breakfast out and made us a bacon sandwich which was really appreciated. Great check in and staff were just amazing.
